Chapter 145: The Black Lotus Son Arrives
[Black Lotus Sect Leader Qiu Wenguang]
[Cultivation: First level of false elixir stage]
[Golden Pill Quality: Ninth-grade Humane Golden Pill]
[Features: Breaking through to the Golden Core Stage by force is not a big deal]
Lu Chen looked at Qiu Wenguang, who was still in the Foundation Establishment Stage during the day but turned into the False Pill Stage after just half a day.
How could he not know that he had received the blessing of the Black Lotus Buddha Mother?
In addition, Lu Chen also noticed that an invisible formation appeared silently around the entire palace.
Judging from the situation, this formation has a tendency to continue expanding outward.
I think this is because the Black Lotus Cult in the Imperial City took action first after realizing that they might be exposed.
Lu Chen was not actually surprised by this.
After all, the Black Lotus Cult has many ways to hide themselves.
Kill the immortals, devour their bodies, and then disguise yourself as them.
These are the most commonly used methods of evil.
Therefore, as long as he killed Lu Chen and others and then devoured their bodies.
Not only do they not have to worry about the affairs of the Great Yan Dynasty spreading out, they can even use this opportunity to infiltrate the Qingyun Sect, which can be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
It's just that they overestimated their own strength and underestimated Lu Chen's methods.
They thought they had caught Lu Chen off guard.
But what they didn't expect was that all of this... was actually done intentionally by Lu Chen.
After all, Lu Chen needed sufficient evidence to show the upcoming great monks from Qingyun Sect and Yuxu Mountain the seriousness of the Black Lotus Sect and the harm it posed to Zhongzhou and even the entire world of immortal cultivation.
Outside the imperial city, Lu Chen's real body reacted as soon as his clone was surrounded.
He walked out of the room and looked up at the spreading black fog above his head.
"Junior Brother Lu, did you notice that too?"
Lu Chen turned around and found that Yi Hanqing and Shangguan Yunmeng arrived in the yard almost at the same time as him.
Moreover, the expressions on their faces were different from the relaxed ones during the day. They looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
"Junior Brother Lu, this should be the reason why you asked Junior Brother Wu Miao to go back and call the elders of the sect, right?"
"No one would have thought that there would be so many evil things hidden in the heart of Zhongzhou, the Great Yan Dynasty."
"If you hadn't called us here, Junior Brother Lu, these guys might have really become powerful."
Although Yi Hanqing did not know what the power of Gu Qie was, he was also not aware of the existence of the Black Lotus Sect.
But he could sense the twisted power contained in the black fog.
He had only felt this kind of power in some evil demons who had gone astray.
Therefore, he naturally associated this black fog with the demonic monks.
This speculation is quite close to reality.
Lu Chen looked at the two of them and said calmly, "Brother Yi, Sister Shangguan, it looks like we have to go to the palace ourselves."
After hearing Lu Chen's words, Yi Hanqing and Shangguan Yunmeng nodded and took out their own spirit swords.
But before going to the palace, they still need to deal with the Black Lotus followers who have gathered around their courtyard.
However, facing these ordinary believers who have not even reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, Lu Chen does not even need to take action himself.
Yi Hanqing alone could kill these Black Lotus followers hundreds or thousands of times.
Yi Hanqing took a step forward, and the magic sword in his hand condensed into a terrifying sword energy.
A sharp sword intent instantly emanated from his body.
Immediately afterwards, Yi Hanqing no longer concealed his cultivation level at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage, and stood alone in front of the large number of Black Lotus believers.
"How dare a mere evil demon dare to lay hands on the land of Zhongzhou? Who gave you such courage?"
After hearing Yi Hanqing's words, many Black Lotus followers did not say much, but just approached him silently.
But unlike their quiet actions, the eyes of these Black Lotus followers were filled with madness.
This weird coexistence of calmness and distortion makes it clear at a glance that these guys are definitely different from normal people.
Faced with such a group of half-human, half-ghost guys, Yi Hanqing was too lazy to say anything more.
After waiting for this group of guys to get within a certain distance, Yi Hanqing snorted coldly.
The next second, countless sword auras similar to peach petals floated around Yi Hanqing.
Yi Hanqing controlled the sword energy and swept it directly towards the Black Lotus followers in front of him.
Wherever the sword energy went, large numbers of Black Lotus followers were cut into pieces on the spot.
In an instant, the originally quiet and peaceful Tianshi Mansion of the Great Yan Dynasty was soon covered by a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Lu Chen and his companions flew over the corpses of the Black Lotus followers and flew directly towards the imperial palace.
At the same time, underground in the palace.
I saw that this was a huge underground space.
The entire space is not only spacious, but also arranged like an altar.
In the center of the space, there is a huge pool of blood.
In the center of the blood pool stands a two-person-tall statue of the Buddha.
In addition, there were many people standing around the blood pool.
If you look closely, you will find that these people are basically well-known figures in the Great Yan Dynasty.
The two figures standing in the front are undoubtedly the ones with the highest status.
One is Zhan Ziyin, the imperial teacher who has not appeared in the Great Yan Dynasty for a long time.
The other is the emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty... Ji Yuan.
The two looked at the statue of the Buddha that was constantly absorbing the power of the blood pool and waited patiently.
When the Buddha Mother statue sucked the blood out of the blood pool, the originally lifeless Buddha Mother statue seemed to come alive.
Seeing this scene, the Imperial Master Zhan Ziyin said, "Your Majesty, it's almost time..."
Ji Yuan glanced at the statue of the Buddha, his eyes full of fanaticism.
It seemed as if it was a plan that had been prepared for a long time and was about to bear fruit.
Ji Yuan took a deep breath and then clapped his hands.
The next second, Queen Li Ruomei, who was tied up, was carried out from the crowd.
On the wooden stake, Li Ruomei struggled and looked at Ji Yuan with vicious eyes.
Ji Yuan's expression was very calm about this.
And after Li Ruomei approached Ji Yuan.
Perhaps because he felt that Li Ruomei's death was near, Ji Yuan simply asked the Black Lotus followers who were carrying wooden stakes to stop first.
He wanted to say a few words to Li Ruomei.
"In fact, I knew a long time ago that you had been causing trouble in the palace, but do you know why I never exposed you, my dear queen?"
“Hmm…”
Li Ruomei, who was tied to a wooden stake and had her mouth stuffed with a cloth, looked at Emperor Ji Yuan viciously, as if looks could kill.
At this time, Ji Yuan had no idea how many times he had been killed by her.
But the more she did this, the more Ji Yuan, as the winner, enjoyed it.
"Because I have already planted the 'Tao Fruit' in your body many years ago."
"Although it took me such a long time to barely reach the conditions for awakening the Dao Fruit, this is enough for me."
"Don't you think about the fact that there are so many people in the harem? Why have I only favored you for so many years?"
"And I am in my prime, but why is there no movement in your belly for so many years?"
"Have you never thought about all these unreasonable things?"
Ji Yuan looked at Li Ruomei who was still struggling, and without waiting for her to respond, he smiled and said, "You must have thought about it, right? But every time you feel that you are about to get your revenge, you will subconsciously find all kinds of reasons to convince yourself not to think about these weird things."
As he spoke, Ji Yuan stood up and looked up at the statue of the Buddha in front of him.
"Everyone in the world says that the emperor is good, but how can they know that he is inferior to the mortal emperor whose life span is only a hundred years."
"This monk with a long life span is the one I truly yearn for."
"However, I was found to have no talent for cultivation in my early years, so I was chosen to become the Great Yan Emperor who stayed in the mortal world."
"But after today, everything will be different."
"The Dao fruit in your body has completely merged with my own flesh and blood. Now, as long as the sacrifice is completed, I can use the power of the Buddha Mother to come to the world in a brand new posture."
"By then, this world will have one less Great Yan Emperor and one more Black Lotus Saint with unlimited potential, hahahaha!"
After hearing Ji Yuan say this, Li Ruomei had no idea what Ji Yuan had been planning for all these years.
She actually thought that she could manipulate the uncultivated Emperor of Dayan at will with a little witchcraft.
But now it seems that she was the only one being played around by others from the beginning to the end.
He regards himself as a vessel for cultivating the fruit of Tao, and in the end he will use her to complete the so-called "reincarnation".
Li Ruomei, who knew all this, only regretted that she had not discovered Ji Yuan's conspiracy earlier.
If only she had discovered all this sooner.
Even if she died, she would never let Ji Yuan get his wish.
But unfortunately, she doesn't even have the chance to commit suicide now.
Ji Yuan, who was standing by, saw Li Ruomei's eyes gradually dimming, and seemed to have no intention of teasing her anymore.
He waved his hand immediately.
Upon seeing this, the surrounding Black Lotus followers immediately carried Li Ruomei's wooden stake and threw it into the blood pool under the Buddha statue.
As soon as she entered the blood pool, Li Ruomei felt a biting chill sweeping through her body.
Then, she discovered that the blood in the pool began to flow into her body.
Although she was clearly absorbing the power of the blood pool, Li Ruomei not only did not feel her condition improve, but she felt her body was getting weaker and weaker.
Because the person who absorbed the power of the blood pool was not her, but a certain existence in her body.
Slowly, Li Ruomei's consciousness became more and more blurred until she completely fainted.
In contrast, her originally flat belly gradually bulged up, and in a very short period of time it reached a size close to that of a ten-month pregnancy.
Seeing this, Ji Yuan knew that the plan that had taken him many years and consumed countless manpower and resources was finally about to be completed.
"Your Majesty, it's almost time."
Upon hearing the reminder from the Imperial Master Zhan Zinyin, Emperor Ji Yuan immediately came to his senses.
Then he walked to the edge of the pool of blood and took out a delicate dagger.
Looking at the sharp dagger in his hand, Ji Yuan cut his wrist without changing his expression and put his wrist into the pool of blood.
As his blood merged with the blood pool, Ji Yuan soon felt that he seemed to have established contact with a certain existence in the blood pool.
And this connection becomes stronger over time.
That feeling... is like being reborn! After an unknown amount of time, Ji Yuan's original body had turned into a mummy, lying beside the blood pool, motionless.
At the same time, a strange child with bloody lines all over his body, who looked to be about five or six years old, stood up from Li Ruomei's body in the blood pool.
When the Imperial Master Zhan Ziyin and other Black Lotus followers saw the blood boy appear, they immediately knelt on the ground respectfully and shouted in unison: "Buddha Mother of No Life, Home of the Void, welcome the arrival of our Holy Son!"
"The Buddha Mother of No Birth, the Homeland of the Void, respectfully welcomes the arrival of our Holy Son!"
Facing the worship of Zhan Ziyin and others.
The newly born Black Lotus Saint did not respond immediately, but continued to absorb the power from the blood pool.
Soon, his body, which was originally just that of a child, began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As a result, his cultivation also began to grow rapidly...
[Name: Holy Son of the Black Lotus Sect (Ji Yuan)]
